Doesn't he mean just transparent background, it is still an x-desktop,
but with the background of the windows desktop+window windows below
the window.

For further thoughts.. if you do this, totally remove the x-desktop,
you probably won't run fvwm or similar, the window 'management' is to
be taken care of by windows... Reflection X does this quite
fine.. Meanwhile for the future :-)
